Abstract：
:All who have contributed in writing this chapter have been patients and parents that have experienced an horrific life event. The horrific disease named necrotising fasciitis has affected our lives for ever. All four stories have explained how easily an everyday infection can develop incredibly quickly into a life-threatening experience. Three stories are expressed from the worn hearts of being a mother, fighting for their child every step of the way. Knowing our children and how they react through pain and illness is felt in each word, sentence, paragraph and even between the lines. Dedicating our unmarkable love and devotion for the child we carried for 9 months. To see them suffer in illness is heart wrenching, but to experience this disease necrotising fasciitis is something else. We must live through every day watching them grow with their scars of debridement, and to support them through further operations, let alone mental scars. Parents show a strength of support like no other and we hope that their lives can be enhanced through the battle they have individually won let alone their family. Robert's story from a patient's perspective is quite different and you will read his courage throughout. We continue to raise awareness through education.
